Sané knows the Bavarians have to find another gear.
As Bayern Munich round into the Winterpause, star forward Leroy Sané reflected on the Bavarians’ recent speed bump in the Bundesliga: a 1-5 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt that has resulted in serious questions about the direction of the squad.
“That was bad from all of us,” Sané said in a new interview for Sport Bild, as captured by @iMiaSanMia. “There are no excuses. We weren’t present enough from the start — and Eintracht were very efficient. It was a Saturday to forget. For us now it’s about showing the right reaction quickly.”
Bayern took a start in that direction already with a 1-0 Champions League win on the road against Manchester United. Bundesliga games against Stuttgart and Wolfsburg before the break will be more chances to show that maybe a squad reboot is not what is needed in the summer transfer window.
But the real test will be in the Rückrunde. Will Bayern return after the new year ready to roll? Or, like last season, will they only find more and more wake-up calls in store?
